How come every study I see says that you need 7-9 hours of sleep to function well but every successful person says they sleep 4-6 hours. Even Arnold prioritized more time training over sleep, getting only 6 hours a night, while people on this board will tell you that you must get 8 hours to make gains.

I only can get up after 6 hrs if i have to go to work or something important. If I can sleep 8 hrs I WILL sleep 8 hrs, my body wont let me wake up any earlier if there is no urgency to do so.

Not that I would want to, I'm a certified sleepyhead

Don't sleep too much. If you sleep three hours less each night for a year, you will have an extra month and a half to succeed in.

Studies also say jacking off every day is healthy but its a crock of shit. You keep saying study this, proof that, how about you peer review yourself some bitches, faggot.

Arnold took steroids, which enhance recovery, meaning he didn't need as much rest to make that much gains

This is where critical thinking would (hopefully) come in. Let's take your statement at face value, that all successful people sleep 4-6 hours (and assume they're not bullshitting you, which is a huge assumption). But fine, let's go with it.
Now, does that mean that every person who sleeps only 4-6 hours is successful? And since it doesn't, maybe the amount of sleep isn't the determining factor here?

>Study says
Google "replication crisis". Muh science is a fucking joke.

Reminder that people who sleep 8 hours have higher mortality rates than people who sleep 5

I unironically trust Onassis and Arnold over some DYEL in a labcoat who passed his undergrad statistics exams by the skin of his teeth.

I wish I could sleep like that. I stopped being able to sleep properly about a decade ago when my father passed away unexpectedly. No idea if it's related to that, but it just got worse and worse until it was torture. Thankfully it's leveled out now and I sleep well one night a year. Mostly I just pass out, lose time, and wake up feeling tired. It can be much worse. I used to wake up and feel either like running a marathon or vomiting. It was like somebody just punched me in the head. Had a sleep clinic done. No sleep apnea.

They lie, user. Most of "successful" people were born into money and set for success. Don't believe the cover up stories.

You googled and still came to the wrong conclusion. Typical American not understanding science. Replication crisis pertains mainly to psychology.
Most technical or biological sciences can and will be replicates.

Sounds like you haven't read a computer science paper during the past 20 years.

Sleep as much as your body wants to, some can get away with 6 hours some need 9. Improving your sleep also means that you won't need to sleep as much and you'll feel more refreshed

If you wake up naturally, without an alarm clock, you've slept enough. Otherwise, no.

Also, sleep quality matters. Deeper sleep means that you'll have to spend less time sleeping overall, killing two birds with one stone.

This. They sleep so little either because their life is so stress-free and comfy that they can sleep efficiently in 5-6 hours, or they just have so much money and they always party and shit that they don't get much sleep. The idea that they're productive overachievers that sleep so little is like Any Forums saying we don't train at the gym and that our muscles are just good genes to impress women

Sleep quality matters most, there are people who are more refreshed and ready to kill shit after a few hours of sleep compared to someone with 8+. Personally I function fine with 6-7ish hours, waking up later makes me feel like a log

Because the successful people have a quality that both makes them successful and makes them only need 6 hours. Anyway, don't stay up late playing your video games

Arnold was roided to the fucking bones you fucking deeply rooted idiot nigro

>Replication crisis pertains mainly to psychology.
nah

Arnold was on T, didn't need to sleep as much to make gains.

You produce more testosterone while sleeping

Why dont you try sleeping 4h for a week?
